Window Into The State House Window Into The State House provides our readers a synopsis of important issues of interest, past and current, that are being proposed, debated or acted upon by the Massachusetts Legislature. Many issues that are not related to local city government services are acted upon and have a direct impact on daily life. They are tax policy, transportation infrastructure, judicial appointments, social services and health, as well as higher education. We will excerpt reports from the gavel-to-gavel coverage of House and Senate sessions by news sources focused on this important aspect of our lives. These sources include a look ahead at the coming week in state government and summaries and analyses of the past week, re-caps of a range of state government activity, as well as links to other news.

Architect’s rendering of view from World Trade Center Avenue

The once abundant surface parking lots in the South Boston Waterfront are rapidly disappearing. The last thing South Boston residents need is more cars circling through the neighborhood in search of parking.

Massport is building the multi-modal South Boston Waterfront Transportation Center (SBWTC) to help to address the parking shortage in the district. Slated to be completed in 2018, the $85 million SBWTC will include: • Direct access to/from highways for people who work in the South Boston Waterfront or visit – reducing the traffic impact on local streets; • 1,550 shared public parking spaces for area employees, restaurant and retail customers, and visitors. Massport intends to make parking spaces available to South Boston residents during snow emergencies; • Real-time transportation schedule and information center, ride sharing hub, Zip cars, electric vehicle charging stations, a Hubway bike station, and a weather-protected access to the WTC Silver Line Station; • Sustainable design including roof top solar panels, LED lighting, and climate change resilient design features. brought to you by Revenue from the SBWTC will support Massport’s maritime operations in the , which is the City’s 6th largest employer with 7,000 jobs. Throughout the project, Massport will continue to work with community members and their elected officials to balance our roles as a good neighbor and an economic engine for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
